Hall of Fame coach Bennie Owen got his start at Bethany from 1902 to 1904. His teams accumulated a record of 22 wins, 6 losses, and 2 ties.

The Bethany Swedes football program (historically known as the "Terrible Swedes") is a college football team that represents Bethany College in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, a part of the NAIA. The team has had 17 head coaches on record since its first recorded football game in 1893.[1]

The current head coach is Paul Hubbard. Hubbard was named to the position after the conclusion of the 2014 season and the departure of Manny Matsakis.[2] Matsakis was hired in March 2013[3] to replace Jamie Cruce who first took the position for the 2006 season and resigned after completion of the 2012 season.[4][5]

The two most successful coaches in terms of winning percentage are Bennie Owen and Ted Kessinger, both who have been inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.[6][7]

  2. ↑ A running total of the number of head coaches, with coaches who served separate tenures being counted only once. Interim head coaches are represented with "Int" and are not counted in the running total. "—" indicates the team played but either without a coach or no coach is on record. "X" indicates an interim year without play.
